Kavli Affiliate: Xingde Li | Authors: Yuehan Liu, Jiayun Laurie Huang and Xingde Li | Summary: Miniaturized two-photon imaging devices enable real-time in vivo and in situ imaging at subcellular resolution, highly valuable for clinical applications and basic research (such as neuroscience). However, achieving high-quality volumetric imaging at varying depths remains challenging. In this study, […]

Kavli Affiliate: Donald Geman | Authors: An Wang, Stephanie C Hicks, Donald Geman and Laurent Younes | Summary: The selection of marker gene panels is critical for capturing the cellular and spatial heterogeneity in the expanding atlases of single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) and spatial transcriptomics data. Most current approaches to marker gene selection operate in […]
Kavli Affiliate: Reza Shadmehr | Authors: Paul Hage, Mohammad Amin Fakharian, Alden M. Shoup, Jay S Pi, Ehsan Sedaghat-Nejad, Simon P Orozco, In Kyu Jang, Vivian Looi, Toren Arginteanu and Reza Shadmehr | Summary: We use our tongue much like our hands: to interact with objects and transport them. For example, we use our hands […]
Kavli Affiliate: Seth Blackshaw | Authors: Nguyet Le, Sherine Awad, Isabella Palazzo, Thanh Hoang and Seth Blackshaw | Summary: Retinal Müller glia in cold-blooded vertebrates can reprogram into neurogenic progenitors to replace neurons lost to injury, but mammals lack this ability. While recent studies have shown that transgenic overexpression of neurogenic bHLH factors and glial-specific […]
Kavli Affiliate: Reza Shadmehr | Authors: Mohammad Amin Fakharian, Alden Shoup, Paul Hage, Hisham Elseweifi and Reza Shadmehr | Summary: Null space theory predicts that a neuron will often generate spikes not to produce behavior, but to prevent another neuron’s impact on behavior. Here, we present a direct test of this theory in the brain. […]
Kavli Affiliate: Kathleen Cullen and Vikram Chib | Authors: Joonhee Leo Lee, Agostina Casamento-Moran, Amy J Bastian, Kathleen E Cullen and Vikram S. Chib | Summary: Goal-directed motor performance relies on the brain’s ability to distinguish between actions that lead to successful and unsuccessful outcomes. The basal ganglia (BG) and cerebellum (CBL) are integral to […]
Kavli Affiliate: Joshua Vogelstein | Authors: Eric W Bridgeford, Jaewon Chung, Robert J Anderson, Ali Mahzarnia, Jacques A Stout, Hae Sol Moon, Zay Yar Han, Joshua T Vogelstein and Alexandra Badea | Summary: Alzheimer’s disease (AD) lacks effective cures and is typically detected after substantial pathological changes have occurred, making intervention challenging. Early detection and […]
